MP Anura Kumara Dissnayake has been unanimously elected as the new Leader of the Janatha Vimukthi Peramuna (People’s Liberation Front) at the party’s 7th National Convention held at the Sugathadasa Indoor Stadium today. 

The vociferous JVP Parliamentarian was among the forerunners to take the top post in the party after Somawansa Amarasinghe had offered to step down from the leadership at a politburo meeting due to the declining electoral fortune of the party.
